    The Role of Energy in the Body M1 Your body needs some kind energy to keep it functioning and working properly; Our bodies inherit the energy they need from food through metabolism. Metabolism is the chemical reactions in the cells that transfer the fuel from food into the energy needed in everyday life to complete daily activities. Energy is needed to get rid of oxygen from certain areas in our bodies and remove it from our bloodstream. Energy comes from;  Fats  Carbohydrates  proteins Without

    Worksheet 7-A: Metabolism Exercises Name __ _________________________ Metabolism explains how the cells in the body use nutrients to meet its needs. Cells may start with small‚ simple compounds and use them as building blocks to form larger‚ more complex structures (anabolism). These anabolic reactions involve doing work and so require energy. Alternatively‚ cells may break down large compounds into smaller ones (catabolism). Catabolic reactions usually release energy. Determine whether the

    Define metabolism: The sum of all biological chemical reactions inside a cell or organism Differences in catabolism and anabolism: Catabolism is an enzyme-regulated chemical reaction that releases energy. Complex organic compounds such as glucose‚ amino acids‚ glycerol and fatty acids are broken down into simpler ones. The energy of catabolic reactions is used to drive the anabolic reactions. Anabolism is also enzyme regulated but requires energy for taking the simpler broken down components

    comes from the food that has been consumed. Metabolism refers to chemical reactions responsible for energy transfer within the body (Moffet‚ Moffet‚ & Schauf‚ 1993). Once food enters the body it must go through a series of chemical events in order to be converted to chemical energy ready to be utilised (McArdle‚ Katch & Katch‚ 2007). As reported by Plowman and Smith (2011)‚ the metabolic system has two main functions: anabolism and catabolism. Anabolism is a process in which energy is used to build
